Happy Bush Won
RECEIVED Mon., Dec. 13, 2004
Dear Editor,
It’s time for me to leave the closet. I’ve been a registered Democrat for 22 years. I marched in two protests against the latest Iraqi war. I voted for Kerry in November.
However, I am now happy to say, "I am glad Bush won."
I have three reasons for my new Dubyaism.
Europe is not our friend. They have been stabbing Israel and the U.S. in the back for more than 30 years under the Euro-Arab dialogue with this Faustian pact, the continent sold its soul for oil. The continent is now rife with violence and bloodshed at the hands of Islamic radicals welcomed by this pact. It is the original "blood for oil." Couple this with the EU’s unapologetic financial support of the Palestinian authority and Hamas and it is obvious that Bush was right to ignore Europe in regard to Iraq. They declared a quasi-war against us in 1973.
Multiculturalism and political correctness are divisive tools of limo-libbies. This abominable double standard is racist. By holding "disadvantaged" groups to a lower standard of behavior than that of the mainstream, we are saying that these persons are incapable of succeeding in the predominant culture. However, complain about the adverse effects of this misbehavior, and you are branded a racist. All reasonable discourse gets handcuffed by identity politics.
The left’s own elitism has made it irrelevant. In fits of childish narcissism, they blame red-state ignorance rather than their own ineptitude for their loss in this latest election. They are way out of touch with the average American, and their whining just distances them even more.
Lefties are crying about moving to Europe to get away from red-state dominance. Go ahead. I suggest Spain. There’s lots of sangria and Real Madrid on telly. Just don’t cry to me when you can’t hear the match over the loudspeaker of the mosque next door.
